News Flash...

<- Crazy man...we must stop him!

So, it appears that I accidently created two accounts on Blogger and didn't even realise it...hence having thought one blog disappeared when it was only that I was logging into the wrong account...oops. So, what to do? Well, I much prefer the template of the second blog, but I did a lot more adjusting on this blog. I guess I can just ask myself which URL I prefer...hmm. Or I could keep both of them and use them for different reasons. Very complicated. I think that I will think it over and suprise you with the conclusion. (Plus I have four papers to write, so I really shouldn't be messing around on the internet...right?).

Okay...maybe not

So, ya know how about five minutes ago in my last post I said I lost everything on Tripod...that wasn't really true. But I hated that site anyway, so I am just going to publish them here and pretend like nothing happend. And there's nothing you can do to stop me!!! Bwa-ha-ha! (I need friends).

Utterly Horrified

Mood: surprised

Now Playing: Man on the Moon -REM

Okay, so I was just web surfing for a few minutes before I decided what to do with my day. Just the normal stuff...checking my mail (hoping to hear from the guy I just bought I computer from on E-Bay), reading Wil Wheaton's blog, glancing at zachbraff.com eager to have him announce the 24 hour film contest, etc...then, after running out of the normal stops I decided to do a quick google search. Never, never again will I be so quick to look up images of an unknown disease before checking out the definition. I am still shaking. You see, I was innocently wondering what an ulcer looked like, since I came down with one last week. It had been described to me as a "scratch in the stomach lining." But no one told me that it could also be defined as "a gapping hole the size of my fist in bloated gray flesh that looks like it has been melted away and infected for several weeks with gangreen and will automatically cause any viewer to grab the nearest trash can." Wow...I am severly traumatized. My friends and family better be glad that they are not here with me, or else I would be forced to impart this horror on them as well so I didn't feel like google was conspiring against me.

Christmas in July

Mood: a-ok

Now Playing: Silver Bells

Don't know what's come over me...but I was in the holiday mood. I gathered together all the Christmas tunes I could find...I couldn't resist. Ooo...that adorable Olivia Olson just came on. I still hold that Love Actually is one of the best films of the decade. My boss at New Regency would gag anytime someone even mentioned the title, but I think he just doesn't have a soul. I mean come on...it has love, loss, hanky moments, funny ha-has, and those ever-so-cachy Christmas tunes. What's not to love?! I have to stop...this is getting me all wriled up. Peace.

Dreaming of Things to Yet Come

Mood: happy

Now Playing: Ya Ya Ya's...on Chris's Computadora

First ever blog entry...woo hoo. :) So, I think that I am pretty ridiculous. I have 5 months until I leave for Edinburgh, but I am too excited to control myself. I just wanted to set this up in order to distract myself from the stuff I really have to do. Well, reality is calling. Ciao ciao.

Summing things up...

Well, over at my tripod homepage (oliviaeverett.tripod.com) I had created a blog for you fellas while I am in the UK, but lo-and-behold it all was quaintly erased when I went to post something yesterday. I was actually really bummed because I had put up a few posts and they were a sort of random that just can't be replaced. BUT...I did find this lovely posting which summed up my feelings...how fortuitous. So I hope EW doesn't mind me ripping it off - "i feel like I could have written it, the fact that i didn't was a technicality."

Where's the love for 'Project Runway''s Michael?

17037__michael_l So you know I'm not one to question the taste level of Project Runway's magnetic minx, Nina Garcia, but I had two huge issues with the judging panel last night. First, as EW's Mark Harris pointed out in his brilliant TV Watch, how come Bradley's ''droopy bronze lunchbag of a blouse with built-in room for an osteoporosis hump in the back'' didn't land him at or near the bottom of the fabric heap? And secondly, how come there's been no love -- heck, barely even a full minute of airtime this season -- for consistently innovative Michael? I thought his dog-show dress was saucy, especially the cross-paneled bust that reminded me a little bit of braided bread. And his coffee filter concoction from episode 1 was a far richer blend (sorry) than Keith's basic blue sheet dress, no? Oh Nina, Nina, Nina, what gives? I am not doing this with you, todaaaaaay.
